Tables arrange and organize content into columns and rows. Basically, they can be made via the container tags <table></table>. Each row within the table is defined by the container tags <tr></tr>. Moreover, each cell or data within a row is defined by the container tags <td></td>.

Remember that the cells <td></td> are placed inside the rows <tr></tr> and rows are placed inside the table
<table></table>.

You can specify the background image of the page by using the background Attribute inside the body tag
<body background="value">...</body>. However when using an image as a background of a web page you must keep in mind not to make your background image stronger than your web page or it will be hard to read the text of your Web page. You can also add a background color that matches the color of the image.

In choosing a background image, you should remember the following:

1. Use an image that will not distract the text and main content of the page.
2. Do not use large image file because it will take a long time to load your page.
3. The background should not show boundaries and grids when tiled.

Have you noticed how your Web browser treats the white spaces on your HTML file? Your Web browser ignores white spaces and pressing Enter of the Return key does not actually create a new line on the chunk of text on your Web page as seen on the code. It will create a new line for the text that you want to appear on the next line.

The <br> tag creates a line break or new line.

<html>

<body>

<br>This is the first line<br>
<br>This is the second line<br>
<br>This is the third line<br>
